Violet's Library

Dear Sean I know it's been a long time coming But I had to take some time To figure out what to say To be honest I'd rather be alone, stay at home But if you're going to call me on the phone again Then I'll test your untimely courage Please read my invitation in the following verses I'll meet you by the creek Where Violet's library used to be The place where we found out There could have been a chance for The you and me You said that if we fall We'd fall into place Cause you believed in saving grace And I believed in better days Dear Sean Your response was very kind You even gave me a clear day and time to meet And I'm looking forward to seeing your face I'm sure it's weathered by the years away I wasn't there to trace And we can act like old friends I'll keep my distance Like the virus hit again Doesn't it come in waves The pain and the confusion No, we didn't have 20/20 vision after all But still you call As if no time had passed at all But I'll meet you by the creek Where Violet's library used to be The place where we found out There could have been a chance for The you and me You said that if we fall We'd fall into place Cause you believed in saving grace And I believed in better days So tell me everything Show me a picture of her diamond ring I wanna live vicariously Through your fiancé's Facebook posts That show the world how happy you are And I'll keep playing my guitar Writing songs about the day that we first met Cause how could I forget When I met you by the creek Where Violet's library used to be The place where we found out It was our only chance for The you and me You said that if we fall We'd fall into place Cause you believed in saving grace And I believed in better days But now you believe in saving face And I'm longing for better days Yeah you believe in saving face And I'm hoping for brighter days We can act like old friends I'll keep my distance Like the virus hit again
